For Banks, Lenders, Incubators & Advisors

Business Location
Due Diligence
for the Loan File

A source-backed local market readiness report for every entrepreneur file — covering rent feasibility, competition saturation, customer demand fit, and area risk — before it reaches final review.

This tool provides decision-support research only. It does not make credit decisions or replace underwriting.

Why banks need this

Most loan files skip local market due diligence

Rent feasibility, competition saturation, and customer demand fit are rarely documented — and rarely challenged until it's too late.

Many loan files lack local market research

Entrepreneurs often submit business plans without credible data on local demand, competition density, realistic rent levels, or customer fit. Advisors spend time filling gaps that shouldn't exist.

Advisors need a faster market view

Branch advisors handle dozens of files. A structured, source-backed location report means every meeting starts with shared, documented evidence — not gut feeling.

Earlier risk detection saves time

Identifying a high-saturation market, an unrealistic rent budget, or a poor demographic fit at intake — before resources are committed — is far cheaper than discovering it at committee.

Stronger documentation supports underwriting

A market feasibility report with cited sources and a Loan Readiness Summary gives the credit file an auditable, transparent evidence trail.

How it works

From intake to a full due-diligence report

01

Entrepreneur completes intake

Business type, chosen location, rent budget, target customer, and commercial model — structured in under 10 minutes.

02

Platform generates the report

AI analysis across public datasets: INSEE demographics, SIRENE business registry, DRIHL rent benchmarks, Paris Open Data, and more.

03

Advisor reviews the dashboard

The bank's advisor portal shows all shared reports with filters, flags, notes, and a Loan Readiness Summary for each file.

04

Report joins the loan file

A downloadable PDF with all sources cited is ready for inclusion in the dossier — or to share with the credit committee.

Built on public, cited data sources

Every metric is backed by publicly available institutional data: INSEE demographics, SIRENE business registry, DRIHL / CCI Paris rent benchmarks, Apur urban planning data, and Paris Open Data — with confidence levels and last-updated dates shown for every data point.

Advisor Dashboard

What the bank advisor sees

Every shared entrepreneur report is visible in the Partner Portal — with filters, flags, internal notes, and export tools. Advisors see a structured snapshot before the first meeting, not just a business plan narrative.

  • Business Fit Score (0–100) across 7 weighted factors
  • Loan Readiness level: Strong / Moderate / Weak / Needs Verification
  • Market risk, competition risk, and customer demand fit
  • Top 3 alternative districts with scores and reasoning
  • Rent feasibility benchmarked against DRIHL / CCI Paris data
  • Strengths, weaknesses, and a verification checklist
  • Internal notes and follow-up flags per file
  • CSV export and printable PDF report
Loan Readiness Summary

A structured readiness level — not just a score

The score is one part of the report. The Loan Readiness Summary combines rent feasibility, competition saturation, customer demand fit, and area risk into a documented, actionable assessment with sources, risks, and a verification checklist.

Strong Readiness

Strong market fit, realistic budget, manageable competition. Well-positioned for financing review.

Moderate Readiness

Solid foundations with identifiable gaps. Advisor conversation recommended before file submission.

Weak Readiness

Significant location, budget, or market risks detected. Further preparation advised.

Needs Verification

Insufficient data to assess. Entrepreneur must provide additional documentation.

Important disclaimer: The Loan Readiness Summary is decision-support research based on public data and AI analysis. It does not constitute a credit assessment, loan approval, or professional financial advice. All decisions remain the sole responsibility of the lending institution.

Beyond data

Decision-Ready Interpretation

Many tools display demographic, rent, and competition data. This platform interprets it — in the context of your specific business idea, budget, customer profile, and chosen location.

The output is readiness, risk, and next-step guidance — not a guarantee of success or a substitute for bank underwriting.

Data signal

High foot traffic detected

Platform interpretation

Does that foot traffic match your target customer — or is it commuters passing through on the way to the Metro?

Data signal

Above-average area income

Platform interpretation

Can your business model realistically access that customer base, given your price positioning and format?

Data signal

High competition density

Platform interpretation

Is the market saturated — or is there enough demand for differentiation to be viable?

Data signal

Commercial rent above budget

Platform interpretation

Is the rent level compatible with your launch budget and projected revenue, or does it create early cash-flow risk?

Data signal

Strong tourist footfall

Platform interpretation

Does tourism support your business model year-round, or does it introduce seasonal revenue risk?

Every interpretation is drawn from cited public data sources and AI analysis. Confidence levels and data provenance are shown for each finding.

What makes this different

Many tools show data.
This one turns it into a readiness file.

Geomarketing maps and open-data dashboards are useful — but they don't tell an entrepreneur whether their specific idea, budget, and target customer are commercially realistic in a given district. That's what this platform does.

This tool supports preparation and decision-making. It does not guarantee business success, loan approval, or property availability.

Built for entrepreneurs and banks

Not designed for franchise networks or retail expansion teams. Built for the founder preparing a first location — and the advisor or lender reviewing the file.

Scores the full fit, not just the area

The analysis connects business idea, target customer, rent budget, competition density, and area demographics — scored together, not in isolation.

Recommends where to open when you don't know

If the entrepreneur hasn't chosen a location yet, the platform ranks the top 3 Paris districts with scores, reasoning, and a side-by-side comparison.

Produces a loan-readiness report

The output is a structured file — not a dashboard screenshot. Suitable for bank meetings, advisor reviews, landlord negotiations, or investor conversations.

Separates data types clearly

Every data point is labelled: verified public data, institutional estimates, user-provided inputs, or AI interpretation. No black-box outputs.

Includes a verification checklist

Before signing a lease, a step-by-step checklist flags what still needs to be validated on the ground — visits, agent quotes, local interviews.

Consent-based report sharing

Entrepreneurs share reports with banks or advisors only with explicit consent. No data is pushed to partners without the entrepreneur's active approval.

White-label version for banks

Banks and advisor networks can deploy the platform under their own brand — custom domain, logo, and branch-level configuration.

Request a Bank Pilot

We work directly with bank branches, lenders, incubators, and advisor teams to configure the pilot, define success metrics, and deliver a structured end-of-pilot analytics report.

Decision-support research only. Not credit underwriting. Not loan approval.
